Newtown: An American Tragedy

Newtown: An American Tragedy

A journalist for The Daily News (New York) offers a â‚¬Å“meticulous account of the Newtown massacre and its aftermath.â‚¬Â¦itâ‚¬s been a year, and this harrowing book might be a reminder that the debate needs revivingâ‚¬Â (Kirkus Reviews).

The world mourned the devastating shooting at Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, on December 14, 2012.

We remember the numbers: twenty children and six adults, murdered in a place of nurture and trust. We remember the names: teachers like Victoria Soto, who lost her life protecting her students. A shooter named Adam Lanza. And we remember the questions: outraged conjecture instantly monopolized the worldwide response to the tragedyâ‚¬"while the truth went missing.

Here is the definitive journalistic account of Newtown, an essential examination of the factsâ‚¬"not only of that horrific day but the perfect storm of mental instability and obsession that preceded it and, in the aftermath of unspeakable heartbreak, the controversy that continues to play out on the national stage. Drawn from previously undisclosed emails, police reports, and in-depth interviews, Newtown: An American Tragedy breaks through a miasma of misinformation to present the comprehensive story that must be toldâ‚¬"todayâ‚¬"if we are to prevent another American tragedy in the days to come.
